Here’s another amazing gift from Steve Rogers. As I mentioned in earlier posts, Steve worked for American Recordings, which meant he got a level of access that most of us would love to get. In this one, Steve recorded a good amount of Long Fin Kille’s set, then some clips of the Ramones and DEVO. Sweet.

Here’s another one from Gary Shurtleff’s collection of master recordings (fromthenosebleeds on YT). This has to be the darkest lighting I have ever seen for a band in an arena setting. No fault of Gary’s- the camerawork is good for an arena vid and it sounds great for the time frame. I did my best brightening it up and the denoise worked really well on this one.
If nothing else, just play it as an audio track- the audio is that good.
And look at that young Mike IX! AWWW

In our search for better audio for Steve Rogers’ videos, we found that there was a nice sounding soundboard tape of the Crowes from this date. I asked the taper for the files and he sent them over for synch. Well, it appears that the band played 2 sets that night and the board tape is not this show. Damn, we tried.
Edit: Steve let me know that this is the soundcheck. Mystery Solved.

Here is another video from Gary Shurtleff (youtube channel fromthenosebleeds), and I think that this is one of the better Pantera show I transferred for him. Great sound (for an arena 1 camera thing) and excellent camera work. This is from a co-headline with White Zombie, a band I will never understand. I tried.

Any help identifying these bands & the venue would be appreciated. This is one of 2 tapes with what appear to be parts of this show. JUNI BRAVO ARCHIVE: I bought a bunch of live VHS tapes of Ebay about 6 months ago. I bought them mainly for a Bad Religion Multicam from 1988 that was uncirculated, but I got a while box of VHS tapes. The tapes were intriguing enough for me to try to find out who Juni is- it turns out that she was a Video archivist from the mid- to late-80s based in San Diego & texas. She followed the Exploited on tour in 1988 and produced the “Anarchy in the USA” VHS tape for them. She passed away a couple of years ago and (unbeknownst to me) some guy was selling her stuff off. I decided to post the stuff that was OK to post publicly to be sure Juni got her due, and to let fans of the band see this stuff- there is some gold in here. I also NEED YOUR HELP with some of this stuff. The tapes were poorly labeled so I don’t know who some of the bands are, and I don’t know most of the venues. Any help identifying stuff is appreciated.

Holy crap, this thing kicks ass. I uploaded this about a month ago and never got around to posting. What a performance.
I think I rebalanced this one in Izotope rx7. I can’t remember.
